"Almost done." Calvin thought for a moment before he answered, and then got the contrast images from earlier back up, and sure enough the restoration was complete.
Calvin smiled and entered to view the restored photo.
Soon, the photo, which had been blurry, gradually became clear.
As the photos became clearer and clearer, Violet and Stanley's faces became increasingly grim.
"How could it be her!" Violet's pupils shrank slightly as she exclaimed loudly.
Stanley clenched his fist, "Phoebe!"
Pennie was actually Phoebe!
"Calvin, are you sure you're not mistaken?" Violet looked at Calvin.
Calvin shook his head with certainty, "Absolutely not."
Violet pursed her red lips and completely ran out of words, accepting the fact that it made her feel unexpected.
Pennie was Phoebe.
In fact, back at the moment Pennie appeared, she had been suspicious because of Pennie's name, which was similar to the combination of Talia Hamilton and Phoebe.
It was only later vetoed because Pennie's height, build and looks were remotely similar to Phoebe's.
But now she realized that her suspicions at the time were, in fact, right.
Phoebe really didn't die, and after her escape, she ran abroad to have cosmetic surgery and became an extremely talented young designer.
If she did not know that Pennie was Phoebe, then there was certainly nothing wrong with Pennie's design.
But now that she knew that Pennie was Phoebe, there was something wrong with the design of her previous competition.
After all, Phoebe's talent did not allow her to design such excellent clothes.
So Phoebe's designs came to be for the competition had something to do with Miya.
"She's actually not dead." Stanley's face was gloomy.
When Phoebe committed suicide by jumping off a building, he had suspected at the time that Phoebe might not be dead, but in the end, the genetic comparison showed that the body was Phoebe's, which was why he believed that Phoebe might be really dead.
How ridiculous it seemed now that he had been actually getting screwed.
"Yeah, she's still alive." Violet nodded with a bad expression as well, "Her initial suicide was planned meticulously, not only did she expect us to suspect whether the corpse was her or not, but she also guessed that we would use the corpse to compare it with the genetic samples she left behind before."
"It seems the forensic scientist who did the comparison is very questionable." Stanley narrowed his eyes.
Violet bit her lip, "The forensic scientist is someone from the agency, but Phoebe does not have that ability to bribe him."
"She doesn't, but Ivy does." Stanley looked at her.
Violet was shocked, "You mean that Ivy and Phoebe both conspired ......"
"I had that guess." Stanley nodded, "Back when Phoebe's leg was broken and she was admitted to the hospital that Henry was in, at one point, I saw them meet, but I didn't think much of it at first."
Since Ivy had just woken up from her vegetative state back then, no one knew exactly what her status was.
Phoebe was even more unlikely to know, so he just assumed that they had met by chance, and now there seemed to be many details he had overlooked.
"If it's really Ivy, why would she help Phoebe? Phoebe is also her love rival." Violet frowned tightly, unable to figure it out.
Stanley looked at her with deep emotion, "Because the enemy of an enemy is a friend, and their biggest love rival is you, so it's natural for them to have an alliance."
At those words, the corners of Violet's mouth twitched, and she was left speechless.
She looked at the computer with a rather complicated look in her eyes, "Stanley, why do you think she's doing this, changing her face and turning herself into another person just to deal with me, isn't it tiring?"
"How do I know if she's tired or not?" Stanley glanced at Phoebe’s photo on the computer and said indifferently.
Violet rolled her eyes speechlessly, then thought of something else and spoke, "I wonder if Talia and Eason knew about Phoebe's fake suicide back then? Or rather, they didn't know at the time, and after Phoebe finished her face-lift later, did she tell them that she is still alive?"
